Feature Request: Positional & Timestamped Impulses

This is a significant feature request, but I feel it would be very useful for many developers.

The ability to see, for each (applicable) “Impulse”, the position (x,z,y), and time-stamp in which it occurred.

Some Impulses that would be a good start are “Death”, “Player Spawn”, “Headshot”, and “Assist”.

This data would be accessible through the “/h5/{mode}/matches/{match-id}” endpoint, under the already existing “FlexibleStats” key for each player.

If this would bloat the responses, it could be broken into a separate endpoint, with a guid or path provided.

Alongside this, the feature would benefit from an additional image added for each map variant to accompany the thumbnail image. The new image would be a top-down, birds-eye-view of the map variant.

This data could be used for a number of purposes, such as:

  • Heat map generation - Advanced statistics with various metrics, such as variance of death intervals, and many others - Ability to compute custom performance metrics.

Hi Der Flatulator6, thank you for your feedback and request. We’ll forward this along to the API Services team.

Woot! Nice call out DF… that will be very powerful.

I would love to create some spatial maps/graphs of matches too :wink:

I second this request! Would love to create some nice heatmaps for various actions.

Big medals timestamps would be cool i.e. sprees, multi kills etc

Would definitely like the positional data. Can create awesome things like you said, or even things like this that I have made before

Definitely would like this
